According to an article in today’s paper Trump is getting his birthday parade. Of course, it’s being presented as a celebration of the US Army’s 250th birthday, but I’m willing to bet that it will get twisted into a salute to our Glorious Leader. 🤢

Wasn’t there some plan for Trump to have a huge military parade in his honor, the kind of thing you’d constantly see in the USSR or in North Korea?

Hmm. yeah, a quick check verifies this.

And the parade is supposed to honor the military _AND_ Trump. It’s explicit dictator behavior.

Yeah, we went from having a President (and legitimate war hero) explicitly reject them 70 years ago as weak BS done in Communist countries to this nonsense.

Does anyone think that Trump will come up with some pseudo-military uniform for himself?

Maybe he’ll get someone to make his old academy uniform fit him.

But how else is a Vietnam draft-dodging President supposed to validate himself?

Just needs those gold epaulets and a weirdo North Korean military hat. He could rock that.

Seems like an appropriate use for government funds. /s

But Trump would _never_ gather people together in DC to cause property damage.

A quick online search suggests they give out merit awards. They’d be more like badges you’d get in Scouts.

And I’m sure there are ones for participation.

He probably bought them from other students. Wait–that would mean he paid for something… He probably _bullied_ other students into giving them to him.

A military academy that enrolls such utter wimps that TACOtwit could successfully bully them? How could such a school stay open?

[oh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Military_Academy#2010-2015_Financial_difficulties_and_sale), um, you are almost certainly correct
